Introduction
Listed below are the available operating systems, platforms and applications specifically supported by Symantec to be compatible with Backup Exec System Recovery 2010. This list includes the BESR family of products namely, Backup Exec System Recovery, Backup Exec System Recovery Option for Backup Exec Windows Server (BEWS), and Backup Exec System Recovery Granular Restore Option. 1. Compatibility with other Symantec products Compatibility with other Symantec products is important to the BESR team. Out of practical necessity, any efforts to ensure compatibility are limited to Symantec products that are current or, in other words, have not had an End of Life (EOL) announcement. Any exceptions or limitations for any Symantec product to this policy are noted here. Symantec Endpoint Encryption has limited support. See <http://support.veritas.com/docs/331926> for more details. BESR cannot create a backup at the same time CPS is running. 2. General compatibility notes BESR is VSS compliant. For VSS-aware database environments; e.g. Exchange, SQL Server, etc.; BESR ensures that system state information is accurately captured. If a VSS-aware product, e.g. Oracle 11g, has specific procedures to follow for a VSS backup, you must follow them. BESR has limited support for GPT partitions. See <http://support.veritas.com/docs/336752> for more details. 3. Symantec support of 3rd party manufacturer products Symantec will cooperate with 3rd party vendors, and attempt to assist in the diagnosis of problems found between the 3rd party and Symantec products. Symantec Technical Support on the combination of Symantec and 3rd party products listed in this document is conditional on the 3rd party product being supported by the original manufacturer or vendor. If the original vendor has ceased providing support for a version of their product, Symantec also will no longer be able to provide support on that product in combination with our products. 4. Minor "dot" version support The contents of this document including 3rd party applications, databases, operating systems, in combination with Symantec products represent what has been tested in Symantec labs, or in Symantec-supervised partner labs, but is not intended to be a complete list of supported products and versions. Manufacturers of these products may frequently release minor version updates to their products as maintenance during their product's normal life cycle. (e.g. version 1.x.x.x) that may not be explicitly listed in this document. In these situations where the base or major version of the product is listed as supported in this document but the minor maintenance update is not, Symantec will provide "reasonable effort" support on these versions until specific testing of them has completed. 5. Not every combination of software and hardware is tested. Symantec provides best efforts to qualify Backup Exec System Recovery with as many different operating systems, service packs, hardware platforms, database application service packs, and other applications as possible. However, due to the number of combinations, it is not possible to test all combinations for compatibility. If a particular service pack or version is not listed as specifically tested by Symantec, it may work fine, but has not been explicitly tested by Symantec with Backup Exec System Recovery. 6. To request additions to this list: If a particular platform is not currently listed as being supported, a request for additions to this list can be made through contacting the BESR product management team.

Also requires: .NET Framework 2.0 Note: Support for the Windows 2000 family of operating systems is being discontinued with BESR 2010. BESR-MS has the ability to backup Windows 2000 by managing BESR 8.5 clients on Windows 2000 machines. Note: Backup Exec System Recovery Management Solution (BESR-MS) cannot be installed on a domain controller. This is due to the underlying Notification Server component leveraging some local user accounts which do not exist on domain controllers.

1. This platform is supported. However, when you backup the host OS, BESR may not be able to correctly backup virtual machines that are currently running on the host machine. BESR will back up a virtual machine correctly if it is run inside the virtual machine. 2. While Backup Exec System Recovery can be used to protect cluster nodes and their volumes, failover situations are not supported. 3. While Backup Exec System Recovery can be installed on Windows Server 2008 Core, it is an Agent only install. W2K8 Core does not support .NET and thus the UI cannot be installed. This OS is supported via a headless agent only. No push install will be supported. Agents running on W2K8 Core cannot be managed by BESRM. Note also that Windows firewall changes must take place before BESR can be managed remotely. Please view <http://support.veritas.com/docs/294972> for more information about what must change in the Windows firewall to remotely manage BESR.

Backup Exec System Recovery for Linux Operating System Compatibility

Note: SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop and Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop are not supported. Backup System Recovery for Linux is a 32-bit application and won't function if you've disabled 32-bit runtime . All standard kernel versions are supported for the Linux distributions that are listed. At this time, BESR-L does not support Linux kernels 2.6.23-x and greater. The binary drivers are already included for all standard kernels that are supported for the Linux distributions listed. For custom kernels (recompiled kernels), the installer builds and installs the custom snap driver for the running custom kernel during installation. The system must have the custom kernel headers on the system. BESR Linux can be run on a virtual machine provided the guest machine is running a supported operating system.
